You could always try listening to it on CD !!! Just a suggestion; I have it on vinyl and CD and CD is always the clearest sound. :D :thumbsup:
Richard Ashcroft and The Verve were from Wigan, and in the 90s I saw them live at Wigan's Haigh Hall Country Park. I actually preferred the support act (Beck), a view that didn't go down well with my mates, who were all from Wigan.
That's the thing with Wigan, lots of people come from Wigan, not many go to Wigan.
I was there once back in early 1980s, all I can recall is rows of half demolished terraced houses. Or maybe that was Widnes, I always get them confused.
Then you've got St Helens. My memory of that is it was like 100 years after the apocalypse where the survivors have cobbled together something vaguely reminiscent of the previous civilization from wreckage they found lying about.
But that was years ago and I'm told it's quite posh now.

Only just spotted your post Martin. The Richard Ashcroft CD was one of a number of CDs that caught my eye and picked up cheap in a charity shop.
Totally new to me, I had heard of him but had never heard anything by him. I liked the disc and will keep it, but have to confess I wouldn't have wanted to have paid full price for it.
If I see anything else by him I might be tempted, but only it is going cheap. I suspect he is a performer best seen live.
